TF DeviceLink like interface

[\Hawk/]

That would be awesome for my two computer system, then I could spread the gauges over my client pit monitors.


Works great! Needed to use "Pseudo" full screen setting to get it to work.

Believe it or nit only stumble across this now. I downloaded VC, but now what?

I don't have a port available for my second monitor, but would like to connect 2n LAN PC to display cockpit instruments. How did you get this right?

[Nightdare]

Hmm, I wonder if certain functions id DeviceLink can be utilized on a backlit keyboard

Hi.

Very good. Someone could help me with this question

I changed graphics:

Asus GeForce® GTX 670





By a.

Asus GeForce® GTX 1060 Turbo 6GB GDDR5

Windows does not detect a second monitor.

I connect the VirtualCockpit and the splashtop tablet app as before (it worked fine they connect as if it performs a mirror of the desktop on the tablet, but it does not look like another screen and I can not have the tablet control panel .

Someone knows what I can do.

------------------------------------------------------------

Hola.

Muy buenas. Alguien podia ayudarme con esta pregunta

He cambiado de grafica:

Asus GeForce® GTX 670





Por una.

Asus GeForce® GTX 1060 Turbo 6GB GDDR5

Windows no detecta un segundo monitor.

Conecto el VirtualCockpit y la app splashtop tablet como hacia antes (que funcionaba perfectamante se conectan como si fura un espejo lo de el escritorio en la tablet, pero no se ve como otra pantalla y no puedo tener en la tablet el panel de control.

Alguien sabe lo que puedo hacer.

Looking good.

I can't get the file as I don't have a media fire account.

but some of the VC cockpits I've seen are very good indeed.

Hi everyone,

I have just finished adding the Stuka and I'm testing it out now.

I have an upload at http://www.mediafire.com/file/s3bl5n..._Hurricane.rar which contains four cockpits BF109e4, Bf110c4, Spitfire and Hurricane. You don't need a Mediafire account to download it's set to public download.

I'll be adding the Stuka cockpit tomorrow and re-uploading a new download with all 5 cockpits.

All_cockpits.jpg

I'n the meantime here's the Stuka

Stuka VC Pit.jpg

and a short video :

https://youtu.be/NwXpzynX4Nw

BTW what is the latest version of Devicelink for the latest Team Fusion version is it Patch for V3?, I'm wondering as there seems to be a bit of an issue with ammo counters in the 110 and Stuka. I don't think this is a devicelink issue though. Fire the 110 canon till the ammo runs out. Fire the MGs and one of the cannons magically rearms itself. And I do have limited ammo switched on as usual in the realism settings.

Oh and whilst on the subject (sort of) of Stukas, you might enjoy my short film "Stuka Vor"

watched the video... and then another came along !

Wow!.. this was great !

Very cool ! and love the out-takes !

[Aces_sim123]

Thanks mate,

Took me quite a while to put it together, good fun to do but a lot of work. The fuel truck sequence took many many retries to get right, I couldn't get the truck to do that somersault deliberately if I had tried to

PS.

Fixed the mg ammo counter problem in the Stuka , very pleased with that.

I remade my earlier Bf109e4 cockpit layout for IL-2 Cliffs of Dover to incorporate the bomb selection panel in the fighter-bomber Bf109e4b variant.

Just finished the Bf109C7, blissfully unlike the 109E7b this didn't entail a complete remake of my existing cockpit to accommodate the bomb arming and selection panel.

That's it for now, I'll upload later today and post the link here in this post:

Aces, thanks a lot for sharing your cockpits. I´m currently starting again to fly the Bf109 and find it very useful to have always a fixed cockpit to look at.

[Pikas62]

Just another goodie in the TF release. A "DeviceLink" like readonly interface.

- It accepts the same parameters as the "GetParameters" function for missions.
- Only the data available in instruments for the airplane being flown will be available. This means, for example, that if you the plane you are flying does not have an altimeter, you will not receive values for the altimeter.
- It has not been fully tested so it might have some bugs (i.e. missing information which is available in instruments).
- Run it in a timer to get periodic updates.
Those who know programming will know what can be done with it

Hi ATAG_Colander. Thanks a lot for the ability to have always a fixed cockpit to look at. This function is very very handy. I have only one question - will this be adapted to further patches?

[fox70]

Hello!
I can't get this to work.
I run VC, hit Start (F9), then start CloD and go to fly. But messages 'No connection' and 'Can't open DeviceLink. Code 2' appear in my 2nd monitor.
Help please!

Hello!

Help please!

And that's exactly what you should see until your plane spawns in. Just as the readme says.
If it still doesn't work be sure the VC exe is in the same folder as the launcher exe

[fox70]

Yes, I know. But when I start flying, it is nothing to happens. I'm still seeing message 'No connection'.
I replace VC files in the same folder as the launcher exe, but it didn't help.

[fox70]

Should I install the Team Fusion Patch first? Now i installed only patch 1.11 from Steam.

[ATAG_Colander]

The device link interface was added by one of the MODs. You need (and want) to install the mods.

[SuperB15]

Just to say BIG THANK YOU for all suggestion found here about to set up my Devicelink with TABLET :

Attachment 8152

..It work like a dream!!

now waiting to find how to insert cockpit contours of every plane

Raptor just wondering what program you used to get you tablet connected successfully. My wife has a spare (cheap) Protab 7" that is not being used and I wounder if it may work.

[Sabphil]

can we use visual basic to communicate with clod?

[Nightdare]

Man, I just recently found out I could save myself a whopping load of time

Before, I was editing values to change instrument size, calculating everything times or divided by the number I needed to get things bigger or smaller
guess what: all I needed was the "Scale = X.xxxxxxxx" value added

For reference in the attached image, the Watertemp gauge is actually 650x650 pixels compared to the next largest guages being 200x200
(Since blowing Rads was my biggest gripe, I once made a cockpit with it being front and center, I was using a 7" tablet then, hence the large size)
I really wanted to reuse that gauge with the color enhancements again so copied it to a new layout, luckily I came across the "Scale" parameter for a different gauge earlier and implemented it for the
Watertemp


adding the scale value in Cockpit.ini

			}
			WatTemp{
				Left = 820;
				Top = 360;
				Scale = 0.3076923;
				#Include(_WatTemp.ini)#

0.3076923 x 650 = 199,999995 pixels, making it close enough

[OverDhill]

I hope the new Team Fusion updates don't break these extracted gauges. That would be a pity.

[ATAG_Highseas]

anyone got a link to download Vitual Cockpit?

for some reason on my new build VC wont save any of my settings... which is pretty annoying !

EDIT:

founfd it:

https://theairtacticalassaultgroup.c...l=1#post174718

cheers 1Lokos !! again !!

[ATAG_Highseas]

OK... thats weird.

it still doesnt remember any of the settings i enter.

new build PC... Windows 10 (grrrrrrrr)

anyone had this ?

[ATAG_Highseas]

OK...

fixed it...

run as administrator... and it works.

why is windows 10 so dumb that i thinks i would want to run anything in crippled mode ?!

Beaufighter "add-hoc" VC (based on Blenheim) - Wip, some scales need adjust, but are usable.

https://s10.postimg.org/grxgczk15/Beau_VC.jpg

Issues:

Fuel pressure gauges don't wok - not VC issue, in game cockpit they do nothing.
Outer fuel gauge seems not needed - unless someone plane go to Berlin and back but both work.
In engine sliders only 1 mixture slider work, in cockpit the adjust are not individual per engine.

Update: https://theairtacticalassaultgroup.c...l=1#post296776

[QB.Creep]

i commented in the other thread... should have probably put it here to begin with, so reposting:

thanks for this! am i doing something wrong, or is there no visual indication of flaps position other than the control in the actual cockpit? when i use my flaps up / down / neutral, i get the blue text telling me i pressed the button, but i do not see the needle move in the virtual cockpit, nor do i see anything on the wing of the beaufighter move.

edit: nevermind - guess the engines have to be started... duh.

[OverDhill]

Came across these. An update on VirtualCockpit. He did a nice job.

Beaufighter "add-hoc" VC (based on Blenheim) - Wip, some scales need adjust, but are usable.

Some instruments added:

https://s9.postimg.org/5zop1e4rz/Beau_VC.jpg

This magneto switches give me a "nice" headache to synchronize... and don't help knowing that CLoD magnetos switches are just "placebos"...

But as some people like do "what if" with then, include because they are really difficult to see in game cockpit.

Fuel pressure gauges work, happens that during start-up they take time to start read.

Aileron trim was not included, Device Link don't export value for this parameter (I guess the set was copied from Blenheim that don't have aileron trim):

https://s9.postimg.org/47vq6rvsb/VC_B.jpg

Remain to do update some scales for better match Beau instruments.
